I dropped out of Oxford because my workload was too much, and I had no time to enjoy college. It was the best decision.

• Graham Price, 46, was excited when he got accepted into Oxford University.
• When he heard about the fun his friends were having at other universities, he grew envious.
• He decided to drop out of Oxford so he could go to a university where he could have a better life.

I picked an unusual degree: classics. Only about 20 of the 166 British universities, including Oxford and Cambridge, offer it.
